Abstract: The purpose of the DoD COVID-19 Vaccine Questionnaire is to; 1) reach out to the vast majority of our authorized vaccine eligible population who have not received the COVID-19 vaccine per Military Health System records to provide instructions on how to receive the vaccine; 2) understand existing vaccine demand to adjust; 3) Inform future (i.e. booster) vaccination efforts. 4) Lift an administrative burden from the MTFs by executing a standardized survey at the HQ level. 5) Remind message/questionnaire recipients to have their medical record updated with their vaccination as applicable. The results of the questionnaire will update the existing Population Risk Assessment Tool (PRAT)/CarePoint if they have self-reported that they have received the vaccine (to include the product and number of doses received).

Emergency Justfication: This information needs to be collected immediately to inform the current COVID vaccine campaign. The information collected will provide a more accurate picture of the DoD population (Active Duty service members, Federal employees, and contractors) regarding vaccine status, which informs current vaccine demand and current DoD vaccination operations.
